It happened. On Wednesday morning at 10am, the Australian Bureau of Statistics announced that the majority of almost 13 million votes in the heavily maligned postal survey were in favour of marriage equality.
Australia has said ‘yes’.
Of those who voted, 61.6 per cent of Australians voted Yes for marriage equality, while 38.4 per cent voted No. An additional 0.2 per cent of the vote was unclear.
Over 12.7 million Australians voted in the survey, making up 79.6 per cent of the population.
In March of this year – for Mardi Gras – Mamamia reached out to friends, families and contributors from the LGBTI community to share their photos of their same-sex love.
These are just some of the people you said a big, resounding, beautiful YES to, Australia….
This is love.
